The Quilted Look

I've been seeing a lot of "quilted" looks on scrapbook layouts, so I decided to give it a try. I used up some paper from a 6x6 Basic Grey paper pad by cutting it into little squares. Then I placed the squares onto my cardstock. (I made the squares into stickers using my Xyron.) It's a pretty cool look. Cutting the squares was time-consuming, but it makes the time go by faster if you watch TV or a movie while you're doing it. :)

Have you guys tried this technique yet? Is there anything else new out there that you've tried or are hoping to try soon?
